Thank god. I'm tired of painting the miniatures for my Beatnik-themed tabletop RPGs. (Those little elbow patches were a bitch.)

The other one (Sam Prekop) is too
Ya, I just noticed that. Interesting.
They kind of fell off my radar but I have a few albums from way back when which I really loved at the time. Have to dig those out again.

This is a great idea, and someone should make this happen.

Thanks for reminding me about that Bob Moog figure (apparently by the same artist), I keep meaning to buy that. It was way expensive as I recall, though.
